Coach Bean recently returned from the state volleyball tournament, where his team narrowly missed capturing the state title. According to the UHSAA, the award is designed to honor those whose contributions and service to high school activities have gone beyond the "second mile".

In addition to the volleyball team, Bean is also the head coach of ladies basketball at Carbon.
